Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there any interest in privacy & free software friendly services?

It could probably be setup with different tiers although ultimately it would  
probably be difficult to provide a significant number of services at a low  
dollar amount. The problem being the costs of bandwidth, equipment,  
facilities, etc. I could envision a free tier where users might have access  
to email, shell, and a handful of others. However VPS, PXE, VPN, and similar  
services would probably need to have some amount charged for or otherwise be  
extremely minimal as far as offerings go in a free tier. The other problem  
with a free tier is it'll get abuse easily. A solution might be a small  
charge to a credit card or similar. However that would be less desirable.  
Users shouldn't have to identify themselves ideally. If one does not identify  
themselves and makes payment for said services it is to ones disincentive to  
risk having there account suspended.
